1/31-2/3 Big Sky & Bridger Bowl 4 days of snowboarding in Montana with Chris W. The Ridge, the Fingers, Castro's Shoulder, etc.
5/25 Porcupine Rim Not my first time for this ride, but still awesome. Closed the loop, starting above Slickrock, with Mike B. Also rode Slickrock the day before for the first time.
6/15 Torreys Peak snowboard descent Bill W, George B, and I climbed Kelso Ridge, then glissed the "Big-ol-strip-o-snow." Stellar climb and descent.
7/6 Holy Cross Couloir Climbed the entire couloir with Bill W and George B, including two pitches of rock. Many firsts for me on this trip: first backpacking trip, first time using stove & water filter, first time using crampons, first technical alpine climb, first multi-pitch climb, etc.
8/16 MOB Climbed the 14ers Missouri, Oxford, and Belford and 13er Pecks. Around 7,500 feet of climbing, my most to date. Solo.
8/26 Blitzen Ridge Fun climb on Ypsilon with Bill W.
9/7 Longs Peak Duathlon Biked from Boulder to the trailhead and back (76 miles roundtrip). Climbed the Loft Route and descended the Keyhole Route. About 14.5 hours total (9 hiking, 5 biking). What a way to climb Longs for the first time. With Bill W and Jeff H.
